D03A083a
Type 2The speedometer indicates the vehicle’s
speed in miles per hour (mph) and kilo-
metres per hour (km/h).
D03F036a
Odometer/TripmeterED03FANb
When the ignition switch is turned “ON”, the
odometer display is given in the lower dis-
play window (1). The upper display window
(2) shows the tripmeter A and tripmeter B
distances in that sequence. It then shows
the distance that was displayed before the
ignition switch was last turned to the “OFF”.
Every time the reset button (3) is pressed
lightly (less than one second), the upper dis-
play is changed as below.
D03F055a
OdometerThe odometer indicates the total distance
the vehicle has travelled.
TripmeterThere are two tripmeters: A and B. These
indicate the distance travelled during a par-
ticular trip or period.
4– Tripmeter A indicates the distance tra-
velled since the current trip begins.
5– Tripmeter B indicates the distance from
an intermediate location.
To r e t u r n the indication to 0, press the
reset button for more than 1 second.
Only the currently displayed value will

During travel, watch the tachometer
making sure that the engine speed in-
dication does not rise to the red zone
(excessive engine rpm).

Multi centre displayED92A-Q
When the ignition switch is in the ”ACC” position, the outside tempera-
ture and clock are displayed in the multi centre display. When the igni-
tion switch is in the ”ON” position, the average fuel consumption is dis-
played besides outside temperature and digital clock.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic air conditioning system,
set temperature, blower speed and air flow are displayed. (Refer to
”Automatic air conditioning” on page 6–36.)
A- Outside temperature / Set temperature
*1
B-Blower speed*1
C- Air flow*1
D- Average fuel consumption*2
E- Digital clock
F-DISP button (For vehicles with a MITSUBISHI genuine audio)
G- Display brightness / display unit selection button
*1:Option*2:Average fuel consumption:
For vehicles without MITSUBISHI genuine audio, only average
fuel consumption is displayed.
For vehicles with MITSUBISHI genuine audio, driving range and
average speed can be displayed besides average fuel con-
sumption by pushing the DISP button in the audio unit.
NOTE
(1) The display unit (ex. km or mile) and brightness can be changed
as desired. (Refer to ”Display brightness adjustment/Display unit
selection” on page 4–31.) When the system cannot provide a
definite value for average fuel consumption/driving range/aver-
age speed, it is displayed as ”– – –”.
(2) The figure of the display varies according to the conditions under
which a vehicle is travelling (road conditions, the manner in which
the vehicle is being driven, etc.).
Observe display for reference because the figure of the display
may differ from the actual figure.
